To open a full-screen version of the complete event log, click the Events button on the tool bar.
To make it easier to find a specific event, click on the column heads to sort the events. (Sorting
events by status icons helps you find specific Error- or Warning-level events quickly.) You can
also move the columns of the event log, if required.
What Do the Event Status Icons Mean?
Adaptec Storage Manager indicates event status with icons. This table lists the three categories,
or types, of events based on severity.
Icon Status Examples

Warning- and Error-level icons appear next to components (such as systems and logical
drives) affected by a failure or error, creating a trail that helps you quickly identify the source
of a problem. See Identifying a Failed or Failing Component on page 136
Note:
All Warning- and Error-level events also cause the audible alarm to sound. See
more information.
